Pros

Easy work with a fairly laid back atmosphere.

Cons

No regard for their employees well being. Company makes poor decisions and changes direction often. They don't have full control of the company in regards to the operating companies. It's like corporate is just pretending that they have power over them, but they give into resistance from the execs at each company. They will never succeed in their ultimate vision if they continue to run this way. "One Sysco" slogan is a joke. Also, they employ some real low life people and let them climb the corporate ladder. If you have real skill and a good head on your shoulder then look elsewhere. There are plenty of companies that offer better pay and benefits with a greater sense of satisfaction in your work.

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
